Hello,
I have noticed that the time the system returns for Renko bricks is always incorrect. The system always returns the time of the previously formed brick as opposed to that of the most recent one.
I have attached working code for you to confirm this on your end.
If you check the output of the code you will see that the time the message is output (i.e. on the left hand side) does not correspond to the time returned for the time of the renko brick within the message. If you let the code run for a couple of bricks you can clearly see that the time is always for the previously formed renko brick.

Please can this be fixed.

There is no problem. Renko bars do not have in progress bars (with index 0). This means that onFeedData() received bar with index 1, the bar that has finished.

Sorry but I do not agree with this at all. I know renko bars have no in progress bar. How can the getTime() not be the same as the message posted time? Surely the getTime should be the time that the renko bar appears on screen, i.e. the same as the message posted time. The way it is at the moment getTime() returns the time for the previously formed brick. Please see the output from the code I attached in my first message below:

09:49:01 Latest Renko brick was formed at time of 2016-02-09 09:46:13:013
09:49:01 Previous Renko brick was formed at time of 2016-02-09 09:45:18:018
09:46:13 Latest Renko brick was formed at time of 2016-02-09 09:45:18:018
09:46:13 Previous Renko brick was formed at time of 2016-02-09 09:44:50:050

Please explain to me how a renko brick which appears on screen at 09:49:01 can have a getTime() of 09:46:13.

There is no problem with renko bars.
